Handheld radio to discord?

[Mike16039]

I have a small business and My employees all use cheap handheld radios to communicate while at work. I am trying to figure out if there is a way for me to use a pi, that I would leave at the office, to communicate with my employees while I am away through discord. Using the pi as a discord to handheld type of thing. Any help is appreciated

What you might want is a discord bot which is doable on the Pi, There should be libraries for most programming languages (I've used a Ruby library and know node.js can be used as well). You might need to look at adding a usb sound card to the Pi to get audio in and out (there's no audio input by default on the Pi).

That doesn't address the issue of interfacing the RPI (or whatever platform discord is running on) to a handheld radio. Without knowing any details of the radios, any detailed advice is unlikely. Bear in mind that:

1. RPis have no analogue inputs. So not possible to connect a RPi directly to a speaker/mike jack as often found on two-way radios.

2. Two way radios tend to be half duplex. They need to be switched between Tx and Rx modes.
